My experience.....
Got the M8, love it. Shoot around the house, love it. Go on a trip, look
at images.. all covered in dust. A LOT of dust. BIG dust. Hate it,
Have not touched the camera in 3 weeks.... trying to decide what to do about
the dust and the camera.
Was about to send it to Leica for cleaning, when I realized I must learn to
clean it myself.....so go buy all this "stuff" ( $150 worth of "stuff") to
clean the sensor....then find out I may have bought some of the wrong
"stuff"....
I may need to spend more money on "stuff"
Yes, it is supposed to be cheaper to shoot digital but I am not so sure.....

Subject: Re: [Leica] Sensor cleaning revisited
I just spent ~$240 on the Arctic Butterfly and some sensor swab and fluid
and this and that. If I can't clean the cr*p off well, I am going to get it
cleaned "professionally."
The swab comes out to be around almost $4 each. So much for saving money by
not buying film!!!
